The crown prince turned to look at Bai Shan, and shook his head again, "You are a little older, and you look like three or four years younger. Although you have good looks, Yang Heshu is the most suitable one. His appearance was only when he was young. Uncommon."
Bai Erlang couldn't help shouting: "Prince, read miscellaneous books!"
The prince just glanced at him lightly, Bai Erlang shrank his neck, but he was still a little unconvinced, "You read miscellaneous books yourself, why did you confiscate my books?"
The prince looked away, and said coldly: ""Supplements of Relics" is not considered a miscellaneous book."
As soon as this remark came out, not to mention Bai Erlang and Bai Shanzhouman, even Tang He couldn't help but despise the prince. He read miscellaneous books whenever he read miscellaneous books. Who didn't read a few strange stories when he was young... Oh no, they are miscellaneous books.
Even now, Tang He can read it, so it is not shameful to read miscellaneous books, but it is shameful not to admit it.
The only one who clearly identified Taibai as the son of Emperor Bai, who was still a handsome young man, was the miscellaneous book "Supplements of Relics" more than two hundred years ago.
Prince: "Even if you don't read "Supplements of Relics", the folks often think of Taibai as a man. He is the master of swordsmen and soldiers. Let alone Zhou Man, even Bai Shan is not suitable. You have to find it in the army. But what is special about Taibai?" Meaning, are you going to be him?"
Tang He quickly explained: "Your Highness, we met a long time ago. After the establishment of this dynasty, most people believed that Taibai was a woman in yellow clothes, with a cockscomb on her head, and a pipa in her arms. This point is recorded in detail. In it, she is responsible for diseases and diseases, and His Majesty and all the officials in the court also have the impression of this point."
Prince: "... Isn't that the book of Tantric Buddhism? Zhou Man, don't you believe in Lao Zhuang? Why did you convert to Buddhism?"
Zhou Man scratched his head, "As long as it's reasonable, it's not impossible."
The prince despised her and felt that her belief was not firm, "Is it convenient?"
"Hey, both Taoism and Buddhism can cover everything. Doesn't Tantricism also define Taibai?" Bai Shan thought very openly. Tantricism can set the image of Taibai, why can't they create it again
He also urged Zhou Man, "You don't know how to play the pipa, why don't we spread the word that Taibai is holding the qin?"
Zhou Man was really moved.
Prince: ...
He was not in a hurry to go to the front office anymore, so he simply turned around and looked at them seriously, "Why do you want to be Taibai?"
Bai Shan was about to speak, but Zhou Man stopped him and explained himself.
When he heard that it was to publicize the medical department, the prince thought deeply.
The Crown Prince was in charge of the Imperial Medical Administration from the very beginning, and even now, his superior-subordinate relationship with the Imperial Medical Administration still exists, so...
He thought about it for a while, and thought that it would be okay for her to be a fairy, but...
"You should stop in moderation, and be careful of being backlashed," he said, "Things involving gods and ghosts have always ended badly in the end."
Zhou Man's eyes widened, "Isn't it?"
The prince glanced at them contemptuously and said, "Isn't it possible? Huh, the immortals in the mortal world will either be exposed in the end, or they will ascend to heaven."
Achieving enlightenment and ascension = death.
Zhou Man thought for a while and said: "I will try my best to avoid the first type. As for the second type, Your Highness, everyone is mortal. Maybe I can live a long life before I ascend to Taoism?"
Prince: "...you are happy."
But why should he know this secret of calculation? Although a little troubled, the prince was still a little happy, so he gave her a suggestion, "Don't spread the word too far, find a few trustworthy people to spread the word in some remote rural areas, and don't do anything else , if it’s a rumor, heck, the rumor has gone astray, you can just quote it again.”
Seeing that he actually agreed, Zhou Man and Bai Shan agreed happily, and Bai Erlang even said: "Don't worry, Prince, we are very experienced in this. She used to be a fairy under the seat of Taishang Laojun in our village."
The prince looked at Zhou Man suspiciously, so you have a criminal record
Bai Shan hurriedly said: "She didn't pass it on. It's because she was smart since she was a child and studied medicine quickly, so the nearby villages have guessed it."
"Yes," Bai Erlang said with a sigh: "We all believed it when we were young, and she herself believed it very much. If we encounter difficulties, we will do it secretly and ask the Supreme Lord in the sky for help." .”
Prince: "...you still know how to do it?"
"A little bit, but mainly Dao and Daoxu do it." Bai Erlang thought of the eggs they gave to Dao and Daoxu for the practice, but they were all taken from their small farms, and they ended up quietly behind the Taoist temple It was burning incense and dancing gods again, but in the end, the Taishang Laojun failed to perform a miracle.
Bai Erlang glanced at Bai Shan and Zhou Man.
When they were young, both he and Zhou Man believed that she was the reincarnation of a fairy, only Bai Shan didn't believe it at all, but for some reason, he and Zhou Man didn't believe it when they grew up, but Bai Shan believed it a little bit.
The prince suppressed a smile, nodded to them and said, "It's good if you have experience."
He also warned: "Don't tell others about this matter, as long as the few of us know about it."
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Zhou Man didn't plan to tell anyone else, well, His Majesty is the highest immediate boss, so it's enough to tell him.
But he is not someone else, he is the prince's father!
The prince didn't expect that Zhou Man planned to tell his father, so he led them to meet Guo Cishi and others while holding back a smile.
Guo Inspector had already led the officials of the Inspector's Mansion and the magistrates of various counties to wait in the front office, and when he saw the prince coming out with Bai Shanzhou Man, he sighed in his heart, and had a new understanding of how favored the two were.
The prince saw so many people this time and there are only two special orders that need to be ordered. One is the salt drying method and the salt field; the other is the publicity and popularization of the medical department. He hopes that all counties can help.
Especially the salt field, which involves state affairs, needs special attention.
Of course, the Medical Department is also very important, it is related to people's livelihood.
Everyone just thought that the prince was partial to Bai Shan and Zhou Man, and didn't think too much about it. Anyway, they all agreed in front of him, and we'll talk about it later.
Zhou Man got support, took advantage of the situation and applied for some money and convenience with Governor Guo, then went home and wrote a letter to the emperor.
That's right, she didn't write a booklet, but a letter.
She feels that it is shameful to advertise herself as a fairy. She is no longer a child. When she was a child, the neighbors talked a lot. She would have the illusion that she is the reincarnation of a fairy. But now that she has grown up, she clearly understands She knows that she is not Taibai, but she is going to pretend to be Taibai now.
But Keke said that it is a star, it is not human, and there is no one on it, so she accepted it quite quickly.
The letter was sent back to the capital along with Mingda's letter. She wrote the letter back to report safety, and told the empress and prince that he had already left Qingzhou.
The letter was quickly delivered to the capital. The emperor opened the letter from his precious daughter first, and then picked up Zhou Man's letter and opened it after he missed his daughter.
